TMSA-UK

Founded in November 2011, TMSA-UK (Trans* Masculine Support and Advice) has become the biggest online support group for those identifying on the Trans* Masculine spectrum in the UK.

We provide support for those questioning and those anywhere along the transition journey be it medically, non-medically, NHS or private.

Primarily run on a Facebook ‘secret group’ platform ensuring safety, privacy, anonymity and ease of access. We provide peer support and advice for over 1000 members who share valuable experience and friendship. We are ‘open’, 365 days of the year 24/7.

The group is monitored by a team of four moderators who identify as Trans* Masculine.

We also offer the following:

Mentoring

Advocacy

Binder exchange

GIC support

Travel advice

Online documents

signposting

Including the main support group, we have a Facebook social group, also secret, where members can discuss topics unrelated to Trans* issues which is a welcome respite. Topics range from hobbies and gaming to clothing and dating. Regular meet ups are often arranged by members here.

We hold a bowling social in Manchester once a month, plus a general social meet in London. Both are open to SOFFA’s occasionally.
